Chiral effects in astrophysics and cosmology
read the original abstract
The microscopic quantum nature of elementary particles, chirality, leads to macroscopic phenomena like the chiral anomaly, chiral magnetic effect, and chiral plasma instability. We review recent progress of the studies of these chiral effects in high-energy astrophysics, such as pulsar kicks, magnetars, and core-collapse supernovae, and early Universe cosmology, such as the primordial magnetic field, baryogenesis, and chiral gravitational waves. We also provide a pedagogical introduction to the chiral effects and low-energy effective theories to describe them in and out of equilibrium -- the chiral (magneto)hydrodynamics, chiral kinetic theory, and chiral radiation transport theory for neutrinos.

Anomaly Realization in Charge-Flux Detector Correlators
Axial anomalies realize in flux detectors as massless-limit collapse of angular distributions onto beam-collinear deltas while preserving the integrated anomaly sum rule, with the same mechanism for zilch and mixed gr...

Quantum Metric Corrections to Liouville's Theorem and Chiral Kinetic Theory
Quantum metric induces O(ħ²) corrections to phase-space density of states, modifying Liouville's theorem and providing a nonlinear chiral kinetic theory consistent with QFT for chiral fermions in inhomogeneous fields.

Plasma heating during the chiral plasma instability
During chiral plasma instability, excess energy from chiral asymmetry heats the plasma with δT ~ μ5²/T instead of fully building the helical magnetic field.
